Rules
- Polls need to be TV/Movie related.
- You must supply a Poll Question, and the possible choices. Please try to keep the number of options to a reasonable amount (Max of 20 Items)
- You can only Submit 1 Poll Per Day. Previous polls submitted will still be eligible for posting (ie you don't need to keep submitting the same poll everyday)
Each day we will pick one submitted poll at random to post on the site.
Penny Dreadful!!!! Hannibal (of course!) Sleepy Hollow (nontheless I don't see it as horror, it's more fantasy for me)
Unfortunately to skip in order to keep the 3 votes: The Walking Dead Hemlock Grove The Strain
AHS is without competition in this case (and I'm still not very fond of the theme for the new season ... they picked exactly my darkest nightmare with the freakshow *shivers*)
Grimm is only a horror from the writing point of view anymore. I really wish someone would change that trainwreck in favour of Constantine (which would easily kick Sleepy Hollow from my third place)
I personally wouldn't count some of these as horror, they are more supernatural (the genre not the show!)
I would vote for other: The Fades which only had 1 series with the lovely Fitz from AoS, it was a mix of Fantasy/Horror but was creepier than any show I've watched.
Finally poll I watched almost every show from the list. I don't consider all of them as horror shows, but if I were to choose, I'd pick Hannibal, Penny Dreadful and The Walking Dead.
This was a hard poll for me because when I researched "horror" shows, which I love, none of them seemed particularly like "horror" Other than Hemlock Grove and S1 of American Horror Story. Supernatural in it's early urban myth and legends would be the next closest for me. None of them scare me. That's what horror is supposed to do. I do love a dark and twisty drama. American Horror Story is a joke to me. They seem more intent on gross out imagery than in actually telling a horror story. I roll my eyes at most of it. S1 Tate was a perfect horror villain in my eyes and nothing since has come close.
Of these shows the only ones I watch are Haven and Sleepy Hollow. The best horror show currently on television is the original French version of The Returned.
I picked Hannibal, Penny Dreadful & American Horror Show. I kinda figured The Walking Dead wouldn't need my vote but if I had a fourth vote that would be it.
My Throw Back: American Gothic ! Such a great show - so ahead of it's time - not given a chance to spread it's wings - even had Sarah Paulson as a ghost !
I don't think I could only choose 3 but I'd choose Hannibal, The Strain, and Penny Dreadful. (Although they're not necessarily the best, since I love all horror shows).
I loved, loved, LOVED American Gothic! "Someone's at the door." Gary Cole was awesome as Sheriff Lucas Buck! Such a good show and so ahead of its time.
A lot of shows with lots of fans online don't have a lot of viewers overall. Hannibal isn't really a show for casual viewers - the lot that watch procedurals left and right. It's got horror elements but it also is more slow-paced. It's more based on weaving an artful story than just spitting out action. It takes very specific viewers to watch. Someone who can handle the freaky stuff and doesn't mind the slow pace.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Well its impossible to vote just for 3.

Yes, The Fades and another British series - Dead Set.
ReplyDeleteIMO, Supernatural hasn't really been a "horror" show in a long time.
ReplyDeleteDead Set was great I forgot about that.
ReplyDeleteTWD, Supernatural and Sleepy Hollow. Honourable mention to Penny Dreadful and Haven.
ReplyDeleteSleepy Hollow and Haven.

ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of horror, but I love Sleepy Hollow, and I enjoy Penny Dreadful as well.
ReplyDeleteOf these shows the only ones I watch are Haven and Sleepy Hollow. The best horror show currently on television is the original French version of The Returned.
ReplyDeleteDominion, Grimm, Sleepy Hollow, The Walking Dead, and Supernatural (Season 1-7). I watch Hannibal too, but it's not a favorite.
ReplyDeleteI agree it started to get less scary after Season 2. Now it's barely got any horror at all.
ReplyDeleteI picked Hannibal, Penny Dreadful & American Horror Show. I kinda figured The Walking Dead wouldn't need my vote but if I had a fourth vote that would be it.

ReplyDeleteHannibal, The Walking Dead, and Penny Dreadful.

ReplyDeleteHannibal
ReplyDeletePenny Dreadful
The Walking Dead
As much recognition as Hannibal gets on this site and elsewhere, why don't the ratings reflect its popularity?

I loved, loved, LOVED American Gothic! "Someone's at the door." Gary Cole was awesome as Sheriff Lucas Buck! Such a good show and so ahead of its time.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, Supernatural never scared me, but its earlier seasons had much more "horror" than the later seasons.
ReplyDeleteA lot of shows with lots of fans online don't have a lot of viewers overall. Hannibal isn't really a show for casual viewers - the lot that watch procedurals left and right. It's got horror elements but it also is more slow-paced. It's more based on weaving an artful story than just spitting out action. It takes very specific viewers to watch.

ReplyDeletelol ....
ReplyDeleteSheriff Buck - that's Buck with a B !
I don't know if i would consider Haven a "Horror" show. I do love it and it has gotten darker but still not horror to me.
ReplyDeleteThe Strain, Grimm and Sleepy Hollow.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't file Haven as horror, despite the King connection. It seems more firmly Sci Fi.
TWD, SPN, Grimm. Also watching Penny Dreadful, Hannibal, Sleepy Hollow
ReplyDeleteHannibal, Supernatural, American Horror Story & The Walking Dead.... but Hannibal beats them all :D
